Happy 5th!!!

Boyd and I have been married 5 years today. I can’t believe it! Here are 5 of my favorite things about him:

He is more supportive of me and my ambitions than I ever thought possible. He is always encouraging me to ask the right questions to figure out how to accomplish what I want. No obstacle is too big for him – he is always coming up with solutions and ways to make things work.

He does everything in his power to make me happy. He gladly takes the kids so I can go to book club and cooking club, he encourages my hobbies, gives me a hug and a kiss every time he leaves or comes home, and is the whole reason I started Vanilla Joy!

He is an involved and wonderful father. He puts Elliot to bed almost every night and wakes up early with him every morning so I can sleep in with Gus.

He is taller than me. We would never have gotten past the first date if he weren’t! And he loves me. I’m so glad, because I can be pretty hard to deal with sometimes, even when I’m not pregnant!

WOW ~ what a gorgeous couple! Congratulations on 5 years! My husband and I will be celebrating 25 next month, and he is every bit as wonderful as yours. As a subscriber to your blog, I enjoy the variety of topics. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your special milestone!

Awwwww – that’s so sweet. Happy Anniversary! And as a word of comfort, when Zoram got stung by a yellow coat, his ENTIRE LEG was swollen for a week – he totally had cankles and the bite was near his knee. Anyway, I think Elliott will be okay.
